This project aims at improving the interpretation of the CPT (without measurement of pore
pressure) for the recognition of liquefiable soils. We present numerical and experimental …

Soil liquefaction is a major concern for the design of geotechnical structures that involve
sand or sandy soils. A steadily increasing number of case histories has been collected over …

This paper presents a new interpretation procedure to estimate the initial state parameter
from cone penetration testing (CPTu) in undrained conditions based on the results from a …

CPT-based simplified methods are the common used approaches to determine the
liquefaction hazard and they require cone penetration test with electrical tip. However, in …

Liquefaction potential of the subsoil is often assessed by performing an automated CPT
based liquefaction triggering procedure. Due to a bias in the measured cone penetration …

With rapidly growing projects in remote, unexplored areas, finding time-efficient methods to
identify the potential risks at these sites is becoming imperative. Furthermore, these risks …

L'identification des sols liquéfiables et le comportement de sols face aux sollicitations
cycliques représentent des défis important en géotechnique. Différents essais, en …

Soil liquefaction is an important hazard and one of the causes of earthquake-related
disasters. The prediction of soil liquefaction is a major issue in geotechnical engineering …

Cone penetration test (CPT) started being used for soil investigation almost four decades
after the standard penetration test (SPT). Despite their differences, both tests estimate the …
